chilly07 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 We (200 home village) have recently been connected to Government Water ( previously had a village borehole). Began to notice gurgling in our storage tank from the ball valve. Apparently it's from air in the new pipes coming through the new meter. The air gets into the pipes from leaks and temporary disconnections BUT the meter also registers this water/air mix for which we are charged so although Government water is cheaper we are metered as using more. Fortunately we have retained our bore hole connections and can switch back if the bills get bigger buts it's worth checking that you are not paying for aireated water 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
